Hypnotic Liverpool five piece The Baltic States emerge with their debut EP Boxes, Getintothis’ Paul Higham is sucked into their techno-infused hypnoticism.
Liverpool based five piece The Baltic States have self-released their debut EP Boxes and have made the title track available to stream.
Their sound is a hauntingly hypnotic blend of ambient electronica and detached techno-influenced beats.
The band formed in the summer of 2013 and released their debut single Kontrol shortly thereafter. The most striking aspect of Boxes, the lead track from their debut EP, is Helen Morrison’s vocal delivery. It is delivered with a clarity and depth and has a haunting quality that complements perfectly the electronic backdrop of their forceful and powerful sound.
The record is dripping in atmosphere and makes a compelling sound, one that will sit nicely with fans of indie and electronic dance music alike.
